Simple Stories {25 Days of Christmas}
Two of my favorites come together…
…Simple stories and Christmas.
I created this little Christmas Mini as a sample for Paradise Scrapbook Boutique.
Be warned: There are a lot of photos in this post.
I was so excited on Christmas morning last year.
I really wanted to capture my children’s reactions as they opened their gifts.
But I was too caught up in the splendid moment. Not very many photos were taken.
I will be better about Christmas Morning photos this year.
I brought out the glitter for this project. Glitter, glitter everywhere.
I am still finding glitter on my face and it’s been a week.
I love how the Simple Stories paper lines always have lots of elements on their papers; each element can be cut out and used as embellishments.
I went a little crazy with machine stitching.
I love the way that machine stitching makes everything look homemade.
Finally. Last Christmas is now documented.
Just in time to start getting ready for this coming Christmas. Yep, only a little over 3 months away.
And yes, I’m already thinking about Christmas…especially since my family is having a Handmade Christmas this year.
Am I the only one already thinking about Christmas?
Please say that I’m not the only one.
XOXO, Christie
